CLEANING THE WASHER
PROPER USE OF DETERGENT
Using too much detergent is a common cause of
laundry problems. Today's detergents are formulat-
ed to be effective without visible sudsing. Be sure
to carefully read and follow manufacturer's recom-
mendations for how much detergent to use in your
wash. You can use less detergent if you have soft
water, a smaller load, or a lightly soiled load.
NOTE: Use only low-sudsing, high-efficiency de-
tergent. These detergents can be identified by the
HE logo.
WARNING
y Do not spray water inside the washing
machine. Doing so may cause fire or electric
shock.

CARE AND CLEANING OF THE WASHER
Lid: Wash with a damp cloth on the outside and in-
side and then dry with a soft cloth.
Exterior: Immediately wipe off any spills. Wipe with
damp cloth. Do not touch the surface or the display
with sharp objects.
Moving and Storage: Contact a service technician
to remove water from the drain pump and hoses.
Reinstall the foam tub block to protect the washer
from damage while moving. Do not store the wash-
er where it will be exposed to outdoor weather con-
ditions.
Long Vacations: Be sure water supply is shut off at
the faucets. Follow the instructions in the Storing
the Washer section if the washer will be exposed to
freezing temperatures.
Dispenser Drawer: Detergent and fabric softener
may build up in the dispenser drawer. Remove the
drawer and inserts and check for buildup once or
twice a month.
1. Remove the drawer by pulling it straight out until
it stops. Lift up on the front of the drawer and pull
it completely out.
2. Remove the inserts from the two compartments.
Rinse the inserts and the drawer with warm wa-
ter to remove buildup from laundry products.
3. To clean the drawer opening, use a small, non-
metal brush to clean the recess. Remove all
residue from the upper and lower parts of the
recess.
4. Return the inserts to the proper compartments
and replace the drawer. Set the drawer into the
opening at an angle as shown above, then lower
it and slide it into place.
